Update is every 60 seconds.

Just modify the line:
var g_update_interval = 60000;
to change this.

Then ZIP everything up, rename it to .gadget and run to reinstall the gadget.

Update is every 60 seconds.

Could you lower this by default? The Mt.Gox website is slow enough without a million of these connecting every 60 seconds.

Anyway, looks really nice, would use it if I used windows.

You can get info on Jessi's Alarm Tool here:

The Ticker/Calculator is windows gadget, info here:

(I modified it to update a little faster)
